had em on 12 months ago dude..

youll need your guards rolled front and back and depending how wide they are youll also need to modify your front strut bases or fit coil overs..
inside of the tyres rub on the strut base...

you can now buy ready made struts with a raised platform and shorter spring to fit 20s. costs the same as buying stock struts but u must by shorter/stiffer springs to suit.

may be i go 19'' then dont want to stuff round. :)

Have a look at the Adventra, it has 20 inch x 255 x 35, the pictures may help, no problems at all, takes speed humps @ 100 k like they're not there.

My VY has 19's and I don't have an issue with clearance. Can't say I've seen any utes with 20's in my neck of the woods (but there was a nice black VZ Munro getting around with some billet specialties on that looked shit hot).

what is a ss lumina ute?

[alexcs]

20's fit, hell 22 fit with a bit of modification :P

for my money though, anything over 19 make the ute look like too much of a toy car.

imho, a deep dish 19" looks perfect, or a flat faced 18". bigger than that and it just doesnt look right to me.

[MR-LS1]

yeah deep dish 19's look mad as!!

20's looked good on mine also but way too impractical for the amount of driving i was doing and i wasnt gonna spend the $$$ on coilovers back then...

I ended up with a few sets of 19's on it but finally settled on some HP Monacco's in a 19.8.5 with polished dish...really set it off!!!

oh and the lumina simply referred to it being chevy badged as thats what the exports were being called going over to saudi etc!!

Cheers.

Ive got 20s on my vy ute, had to get guards rolled but no issues with struts/shocks etc.
Also lowered 1 1/2 inches at front, 2 inches at rear with 235/35/20 tyres.

[fatas]

yep i do 40 to 50 k a year so 20'' wheels my be over the top the adventure looks cool though. also hard to explain to accountant why i needed 4 sets of tyres a year. :D
